[sql-server] How to emulate a BEFORE INSERT trigger in T-SQL / SQL Server for super/subtype (Inheritance) entities?

While Andriy's proposal will work well for INSERTs of a small number of records, full table scans will be done on the final join as both 'enumerated' and '@new_super' are not indexed, resulting in poor performance for large inserts.

This can be resolved by specifying a primary key on the @new_super table, as follows:

DECLARE @new_super TABLE (
  row_num INT IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED,
  super_id   int
);

This will result in the SQL optimizer scanning through the 'enumerated' table but doing an indexed join on @new_super to get the new key.
